lyrics
I'll stare as your eyes wash your face
of the last five years that brought you to this place
out in the woods under the tallest tree
your toes brushing the fallen leaves
their colors melting to the ground
your pounding heart the only sound
I'll hear
out here
now you know dear how hard it is giving up starting over
now your head hangs heavy and watches your feet
as they step you away from where you thought you'd like to be
five years ago
the sun melts your head in its rays
taking you back to those wonderful golden old days
when you were young in such a pleasant way
he'd mold your future like its clay
then coddle you beneath his wing
a perfect past the only thing
I'll fear
out here
of the last five years that brought you to this place
out in the woods under the tallest tree
your toes brushing the fallen leaves
their colors melting to the ground
your pounding heart the only sound
I'll hear
out here
now you know dear how hard it is giving up starting over
now your head hangs heavy and watches your feet
as they step you away from where you thought you'd like to be
five years ago
the sun melts your head in its rays
taking you back to those wonderful golden old days
when you were young in such a pleasant way
he'd mold your future like its clay
then coddle you beneath his wing
a perfect past the only thing
I'll fear
out here
